I wouldn't think twice about purchasing this combo. The only way you can tell these were reconditioned is by looking at the stickers. They work flawlessly, just like brand new. The hammer drill and impact driver have the power to do almost anything.

This is an all around must tool. Home, work, Whatever, Light weight, Easy to use, Battery life is Awesome , Cant wait to own all of this Makita line. Its Simple efficent bottom line makes my job easyer, I use it everyday. anyone can use this tool. I bought a Second screw gun and battery for my wife. so she would stop asking for mine. I got it at christmas & so far no problems.

I own and love another 18v Li-ion drill/ driver, but could never drive phillips head Tap-cons, or long deck screws in hard wood. A friend lent me this set for a week, installing trim, soffit and fascia on a large barn. The drill is sweet with a very user freindly/effective chuck. The batteries hold a charge forever, and charge quickly. And, the impact driver will make you fall in love all over again, driving four inch phillips headed screws in pine, or torx heads in oak, or just hanging on your belt looking good. Even the belt hooks on this set are placed well and haven't yet dropped the tool. By the time you read this I will have bought two, one for my company, and one for me.

I admit, this is my first time buying reconditioned tools. I was expecting to be disappointed. However, these tools are cranking just as powerfully and accurately as my new ones. I was seduced by the price but hesitant. Thus far they are like new. Will I be surprised if they cut out early...probably. I hope my fears are ungrounded. For now I am smiling.

The battery lasts forever , unit is light and best of all the drill bits don't slip! Since this was a recon unit it had a couple of scratches on it [3 of them ] no big deal. The big deal was the money saved over the new price .

5 Stars; can't get any better? I'd like to see the battery release button be different. I find it awkward to use. Maybe just takes some learning on my part. The LED lights are shadowed by the front end of the tools, hence do not illuminate the target. The Jacobs chuck will slip on drill bits. CPO has provided me with several great tools and I've never had a problem with the refurbs. [...]

In another life I have sold and used Makita tools but had gotten away from them for other brands. A friend recently recommended the impact driver on a job we were doing together and I was so impressed that I had to have my own. Enough said, I am recommending this to others.

I work in a union display shop and I have to use the impactor or the drill on a daily basis throughout the day. I have been a Makita man since the 80's and have never had a reason the stray. I use this tool so often on the job that I bought a second one for my side jobs. I beat these things mercilessly and they always come back for more. Big fan!!

Two great tools, the drill/driver is lighter than my other 18v drills which makes overhead work much less tiring. Chuck locks first time and hasn't "spun out" yet. That's a big problem with another brand's drill/driver and wastes time re-chucking. It can also be dangerous if your bit flies out of the chuck. I can't say enough good things about the hammer drill, it's excellent. Ifthey only reduced the price they would be perfect.But then that's not too bad :-)

My friend/co-worker bought this product for over $300 and is now angry because mine is just as good as his for $100 LESS. I use it almost daily in my cabinetry install work and have had NO problems. Charges fast and works great.

As a woodworker, I am constantly drilling holes and driving screws. With this combo I can chuck up the drill bit in the drill and drive the screw with the impact driver. Doesnt get much better than this. I used to own Dewalt with old battery technology. Lithium Ion is the way to go. And with reconditioned tools, the price is great.

Great battery life, powerful on masonry and love the impact just got the grinder in the mail today from Cpo. Looking forward to buying the porta-band next week and another Lxt211 kit for the batteries and charger.

I love my new Makita drill and driver. The drill is much lighter and more powerful than the Dewalt I replaced. I love it. It's well balanced and easy to use. The forward and reverse are within easy reach with your thumb or forefinger. I recommend to everyone when buying to replacing a cordless tool to buy from the new Makita LXT line, they will not be disappointed.

We live on a ranch and our tools are used under all kinds of weather conditions. They don't always receive the best of care and have to be tough. At the recommendation of a contractor friend we purchased this combo and the tools have always performed perfectly and are working as well today as the day we received them. Wouldn't consider anything else if they have to be replaced.

I got this tool set because the price was not much more than a set of batteries. I have tools that use the batteries and they are plenty powerful and I use them all the time. I had 2 of the BL1830 batteries and they went out in a couple of years which I thought was too quick.

I've recently been building a 2-car carport. I didn't move beyond sinking my 9 4x4 posts until my new (refurbished) Makita LXT impact & drill arrived. Since then I've been building to code doubling up 2x6s as perimeter and main support for the single 2x6 rafters. Just the rafters will require 112 2x6 joist hangers (four rows of 14 rafters) and I've been using 2.5 inch screws to mate everything. No, I haven't been doing pilot holes and screws non-stop as I have been cutting material as I go; but even after a full day, both the drill and driver are running full song. Neither battery has taken longer than 20 minutes on the charger at the end of the day before I hear the beep indicating 100%. My black & decker and ryobi cordless tools would have collapsed--lost battery power multiple times each day and wore me out while doing so. The difference between using the impact to drive screws home and using my old 14.4v B&D or 18v Ryobi is staggering. I would pay full-price new for the difference, but I didn't have to. The refurbs are 50 bucks cheaper than new and the only thing you lose for the $50 is 2 years on the new 3-year warranty. I can live with one year. After all, if I'm going to push it beyond its limits and find an inherent flaw in a tool, I'm likely to do it well before a year is out. Great tools and the impact is as light as my old 14.4v B&D...and that's with the big 3Ah bateries the LXTs come with (I wanted the longer run-time the compact L-ions can't match with only 1.5Ah). Inspires me to do the old Tim Allen "grunt, grunt, grunt...more power!" I think I know what I'm getting my son-in-law for next Christmas.

As a Handyman, I use the drill and driver almost every day. This is my 2nd set after 3 yrs only because I dropped the drill too many times from a ladder and the handle finally cracked. It still worked fine, but the battery would wobble. I keep the old driver with me for those few times when I need two.

It's liteweight but powerful. You can use it in tight spaces easily. I love that led light that comes on and stays on whether you are drilling or not. And the belt clip is very handy. I knew it was a good product; but it has exceeded my expectations!Thanks NC.

New Vs. Reconditioned

What's the difference between New and Factory-Reconditioned?

Factory-Reconditioned products have been returned to the manufacturer and are restored to like-new operating condition; they go through a rigorous testing and inspection process. Plus, they offer a significant savings vs. new.

Reconditioned products may have minor cosmetic blemishes or scratches that do not affect item performance.

Reconditioned products may not come with all of the consumables the new version comes with (bits, sanding pads/papers, cases, etc.).

Both come with a manufacturer warranty and are covered by our Money Back Guarantee; New is 30 days, Reconditioned is 60 days.
